Abstract

A plasma processing method includes a gas supply step and a film forming step. In the gas supply step, a gaseous mixture containing a compound gas containing a silicon element and a halogen element, an oxygen-containing gas, and an additional gas containing the same halogen element as the halogen element contained in the compound gas and no silicon element is supplied into a chamber. In the film forming step, a protective film is formed on a surface of a member in the chamber by plasma of the gaseous mixture supplied into the chamber.
